SEA 48 was signed by Governor Mead on March 14, 2018, requiring the addition of Computer Science Standards and changes to the Basket of Goods in W.S. 21-9-101(a)(i).

Section 3 of the bill requires the State Board of Education to promulgate the final version of the computer science standards by January 1 2022, and for the standards to be made effective beginning with the 2022-23 school year.

The proposed standards have been presented to the Board, and public input was collected from January 22 to March 5 2019. The input will be presented at the Board’s March meeting.
